Applewood, an upscale Sonoma Bed and Breakfast located in Guerneville at the heart of the Russian River Wine Country Pinot Noir growing region was established in 1985. From the start Applewood was recognized as a premier Sonoma Wine Country Inn and over the years it has been written in over 40 magazines, shown on PBS and received important accolades from nationally recognized institutions. Its location near Sonoma, Healdsburg and Napa allow guests to explore the best attractions that California Wine Country has to offer and has made it a loved weekend getaway for bay area couples.

Like a "cosmopolitan retreat among the redwoods", this Guerneville "Euro-style inn" "hits all the right notes" serving Californian fare including tasting menus delivered with "unpretentious" service that "exceeds expectations"; though it's not cheap, a "romantic" "country" setting warmed by a "cozy fireplace" and an "approachable and exciting" wine list ad to reasons most would gladly drive back up to the middle of nowhere"; P.S. closed Monday andTuesday.
